Hey Team…

I’m in process of getting an “audio version” of my book ‘How To Turn Your Million Dollar Idea Into A Reality‘ created and need your feedback.

I’ve been able to convince everyone involved, that we should give a copy of the draft audio away free to everyone on the ‘inner circle’ mailing list, in exchange for feedback.

…and if you shoot me an email with some feedback or a testimonial on the first few chapters, I will email you the download links to the other chapters and so on…

Once I get everyone’s feedback and we make any changes; we are releasing this as a traditional audio book, so you will also get access to the physical CD pack at a discount too.

The audio is a slightly abridged version of the original book published a few years back; so we don’t need content feedback – we need speed, tone, pitch feedback etc.

So if you are on the mailing list, check your email as I’m sending the ’secret password + link’ to give you download access.

If you’re not on the list, make sure you fill out the form below and I will re-email everyone in a day or two.

HARO (Help a Reporter Out) is a great tool for getting yourself out there and in touch with journos needing expert opinions and quotes…

But I’ve been testing it as a source for unique, high quality blog content – Check out the video for more info..

As promised on my twitter feed a few weeks back, I had a Confidentiality NDA Agreement put together for some projects I have in the works… and had a version created that I can make available to anyone who wants it.

For those of us who outsource a tonne of work to developers, content creators, virtual assistants or designers, a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) [Confidentiality Agreement, Confidential Disclosure Agreement (CDA), Secrecy Agreement] is an essential contract between you and the providers, that protects your intellectual property.

Put simply, a non-disclosure agreement protects you by ensuring the other party (provider) will not disclose any of the information about your idea or project, except under terms as described in the contract, and will not market the idea or compete with you.

Even with an non-disclosure agreement, still only talk about your idea with people whose integrity you can trust. Even with a person you trust, it’s best to always sign an non-disclosure agreement before discussing your idea or project; and always draft agreements like you hate the other person. With that mindset, you will be sure to cover every little detail.

This ‘NDA Blueprint’ covers quite a few things, including;

• Definition of Confidential Information Clauses
• Ownership of Confidential Information Clauses
• Use of Information and Disclosure Clauses
• Ownership Rights to Work Product Clauses
• Non-Competition Clauses
• Acknowledgments And Disclaimers. Clauses
• No Publicity Clauses
• Severability Clauses

OK, so that statement couldn’t be further from the truth – In fact, it’s the complete opposite… The internet is making video stars.

No matter what level of marketing you are doing on the internet, you really want to make sure that video is a major part of your mix.

Take the current ‘launch’ that John Reese is doing for his Traffic Secrets 2.0 course – It’s entirely in video.

…And in classic Reese fashion, he goes and ups the ante by making this one of the coolest free videos ever released.

In fact he’s just release the third video in his free series …

Now when it comes to making a name for yourself by using video online, there is no-one more infamous than Jason Moffat

At the recent Mass Control seminar that Frank Kern ran, JMo did a crazy presentation on using video to sell online… And when I say crazy, I really mean ‘insane’… He was drinking beer during his entire presentation and it was like 10 o’clock in the morning !!!

He must have been well over the legal limit, as the content he reveled during this 50 odd minutes was pure gold.. One YouTube secret he let slip has created one of the biggest waves through the ‘inner-circle’ I’ve ever seen.

BUT the best bit is, he has made his entire presentation available for free on his site – It really is a MUST watch.

So, if you’re using the old model to write as many articles as fast as you can, think again.

More than 52% of Internet content today is video.

- Create podcast channels and episodes in minutes and get them listed in the top podcast directories…driving even more qualified prospects to their sites.

- Build list-building “video lead pages” for you automatically! No web site to build, no hosting to pay for.

I know the owner of this company.

He’s agreed to give my friends a 30-day risk-free trial of the system so you can see how well it works.

Even if you don’t have a video, this trial will show you how to create one so you can test this for yourself asap.
